Veterans of Foreign Wars June July Magazine: Instilling Patriotism
This is an article by Ernest Lefever. A quick Google shows him to be a recipient of some Scaif monies. He is a member of 'The Heritage Foundation', American Enterprise, and founding President of 'Ethics and Public Policy Center.

The man speaks of instilling patriotism in schools sort of a method perhaps better referred to as 'Indoctrination of Patriotism'. His program calls for God and Flag. Veterans are true patriots he says. I guess the others are not?

Oh I failed to mention he is associated with La Haye, of Left Behind fame.

I bet he has a nice home and cars. Perhaps he leave them to me as he ascends.

Any Vets (or others) read his article?

1. Nope, I stopped sending them money a long time ago.
I was a member for two years. Then I realized what a bunch of nutjob causes they support.
